STATE OF MANHATTAN. NITIATORY steps have been taken by Westchester County to become the sixth borough of Greater New York. At the meeting of the North Side Board of Trade, composed of Westchester County business men, the plan met with general approval to constitute a borough of Yonkers, Mount Vernon, New Rochelle and the rest of lower Westchester County. This fs a natural demand. Many of the residents of Westchester County do business in New York, pay taxes here either directly on their business or Indirectly In the form of office rent, and feel that they have as much right to be Included In the benefits of consolidation as Tottenville or the outlying parts of Queens County. Prosperity in the suburbs depends on prosperous business condi- tions in the city. Improvements such as rapid transit, roads, bridges, sewers and pavements cannot properly be stopped at an arbitrary line, If New York City were better governed, if its inhabitants recelved the vast benefits to which the taxes they pay entitle them, there would be a demand from all suburban neighborhoods to be included in this great municipality. | Jersey City and Hoboken are really more closely allied to New York than is the lower part of Staten Island. The Oranges are as closely bound by business, financial and social ties to New York City as is that part of the Long Island commuting district which is included in Queens Borough. ! | rae The Greenwich neighborhood in Connecticut is really a New York City suburb, as is the whole commuting territory from Stamford, Peeks- kill, Morristown and New Brunswick, divided now in three States. To unite all these in one great city, the greatest the world has ever known, or for centuries to come ever will know, would require more than an act of the State Legislature. It would mean the State of Manhattan, Such a State would begin its existence with a population larger than ary other State except Per inia and possibly Illinois. With good government and good transportation fac! it would not take long to make the State ot beginning be first in wealth. | ——<+0 MR. TAFT AT HOME.
